The remains of a 19-month old toddler have been recovered in Limpopo, after she was allegedly abducted by a man her mother met on social media.
Hlawuleka Prosperity Rikhotso was kidnapped at Xawela Village in February 2020.
However, the suspect died in police cells three weeks later without admitting to the crime or divulging the whereabouts of the child.
